For the second year in a row, the Pittsburgh Penguins will take home the Stanley Cup.

Patric Hornqvist's goal late in the third period gave the Pens a 1–0 lead and the Predators were unable to find an answer in the waning moments.

Hornqvist was behind the end line, but somehow managed to put the puck off the back of Pekka Rinne's elbow and it deflected into the back of the net.

Carl Hagelin scored an empty-net goal with 13.5 seconds to play, putting the final nail in the coffin.
